Not Blind to the Injustices of the World

"The Russian Olympic Committee was suspended on Tuesday from the 2018 Winter Games in Pyeongchang, South Korea over the 2014 Sochi doping scandal. Russia’s Minister of Sports Vitaly Mutko and his then-Deputy Minister Yuri Nagornykh are banned from all future participation at Olympic Games."

I thought it was funny that Russian officials threatened to boycott if the results were too damning... I can only imagine someone chuckling to themselves "go ahead and 'boycott' after we banned yer cheating ass"

Full disclosure : I don't consider what they did to necessarily be bad, I think everyone should just be on a level playing field in terms of medical treatments to increase oxygenation etc.

That wasn't what they did that was bad. It was the government-led conspiracy to switch out doped test for clean ones while giving the unknowing testers enough sacrificial lambs that they wouldn't keep looking.

Man, maybe they can extend this to the World Cup this summer and move it to the USA at a moments notice.... Always found it strange how competitive Russia & China were at the Olympics given both countries are giant inbreeding factories. I mean, look at every Russian male - they are all basically the missing link give or take a few chromosomes.

I can understand the China thing because of all the kid-napping and mandatory state-sponsored programs to farm athletes out of their population. Tearing anyone who shows promise away from their families at a young age, etc.

Russia seems a little more "of your own free will" type of state with a far less extreme farming system with the most retarded pool of goppleygops to choose from. Gotta be the dope, man. "Athletic Russian" is an oxymoron.

Anyone who wants to risk their own life for better entertainment to the masses should be allowed to. Was baseball never more exciting than watching Sosa/McGuire chase the home run record? Apply that to the olympics and you have amazing results that are crowd drawing
